Oxalidaceae (Wood-sorrel)
Distribution:
Northern Cape
National red list:
Least Concern
Life form:
Geophyte (bulb, corm or tuber - seasonally dormant)

This species occurs in remote montane areas where grazing pressure is currently low. It may increase in future as lowland rangelands become increasingly degraded. This species' preference for rocky crevices on steep slopes may offer it some protection against the effects of grazing and trampling.
